Lillee receives treatment
! PA Wellington j The Australian fast i bowler, Dennis Lillee, is rej ceiving medical treatment in • Wellington after leaving the : field at the start of the third ! day’s play in the first cricket s test between Australia and i New Zealand in Wellington j yesterday. ■ Lillee had bowled only one i over, the first of the morn- ! ing, when he left the field I with a painful muscle spasm ! in his lower back.
The Australian manager, Alan Crompton, told reporters last evening that the injury was not thought to be serious but that Lillee was being attended by a Wellington doctor. "It doesn't appear to be too bad,” Mr Crompton said. “The doctor had given Dennis some tablets and he says it’s the sort of thing which could go away as quickly as it came."
